The latest scandal to erupt from the bowels of the Biden Administration is another glaring example of liberal negligence. A former State Department employee, Levita Almuete Ferrer, who served under this administration, has been caught red-handed siphoning off over $650,000 from the American taxpayer. This is more than just a crime; it’s a breach of trust and yet another indictment of the chaos that seems to thrive when liberals are at the helm. How was this allowed to happen right under the “watchful” eyes of the administration supposedly restoring integrity?
Ferrer, a so-called budget analyst — one who apparently believed her personal bank account needed a boost — managed to embezzle this money over two years. She abused her signature authority to transform a State Department account into her own personal piggy bank. The sheer audacity of writing checks to herself while under the guise of serving the public should make every American’s blood boil. It’s a small-time con in a bigger, Democrat-fueled circus of bureaucratic incompetence.
In a system supposedly monitored and regulated, Ferrer manipulated records with ease — an embarrassing oversight but not surprising for an administration that can’t even seem to keep track of its own runaway spending. This isn’t just mismanagement; it’s incompetence on a grand scale. Meanwhile, taxpayers get stuck with the bill, while the liberal elite continue to preach about governance and accountability as they swindle and spend.
What’s worse is the timing of this revelation, coming hot on the heels of another financial fiasco — a case where USAID, another government entity, was over-billed nearly a million dollars. Are we witnessing a pattern here? Is this what “building back better” looks like? Evidently, this administration’s version of America’s “build back” involves a staggering level of governmental bloat, fraud, and waste, multiplying while liberal leaders turn a blind eye.
Come September, Ferrer faces sentencing. But the real question isn’t about how much time she’ll serve; it’s about what safeguards will be in place to prevent the next “analyst” from pulling a similar stunt. How many more Levita Ferrers lurk in the swamp of bureaucracy, waiting for their chance to grab a slice of taxpayer pie? The Biden Administration must answer for these unchecked faults, or are we to simply expect this reckless maintenance of our nation’s finances to continue unchecked?
